Veggie Pan Pizza

What can be better than to make your own pizza right from the scratch... It will be healthy and also nutritious.... :)


Ingredients:

For the base:
Wheat Flour - 2 cups
Yeast - 2 tsp
Sugar- 1 tsp
Salt - 1 tsp
Oil - 2 tsp

For the sauce:
Tomato - 1 
Onion - 1 
Garlic pod - 2 
Sugar - 1 tsp
Salt to taste 
Coriander - 2 tsp
Oil - 2 tsp

For the topping:

Capsicum
Onion
Cheese grated


Method:

Mix sugar, salt and yeast in luke warm water. Cover it and keep it aside for 5 mins till the yeast foams up.

Add this to the flour. Also add the oil and mix well. Add enough water and make a soft dough. Cover it with a wet cloth and leave aside for 1 hour. The dough doubles up in size.

Heat a pan and add oil to it. Add roughly chopped onion, tomato and garlic to it. Add salt, sugar and coriander and saute it till the tomatoes are cooked properly. Cool this mix and grind it to smooth paste.

Now knead the dough well with your fist till the dough becomes smooth. Add little dry flour while kneading.

Take enough amount of the dough and roll it till it is about half a centimetre thickness.


Place the rolled dough on a pan. Spread the sauce on it properly. Cut the capsicum and onion into small pieces and place them on the pizza base. 

Now spread lots of cheese on it as per your taste. 

Heat a flat tava preferably dosa one and place the pan with pizza on the flat tava. Cover it with a lid and cook on low flame till the base is cooked properly and the cheese melts.

Serve hot with Italian seasoning and ketchup.


Note:
1. Don't place the pan directly on flame. This can burn the pizza base. 
2. You can add more toppings on the pizza or simply spread only the cheese and still have a great taste.
3. You can roll the dough based on the thickness that you need for your pizza.
4. I have used wheat flour, you can also use maida or all purpose flour. That would taste great too.

Enjoy cooking :)
